KAFD World Trade Centre, Saudi Arabia

BFG fabricated 3,180 lightweight composite cladding panels for the 63-storey KAFD World Trade Centre in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. In all, BFG oversaw complete engineering, fabrication and delivery of 47,000 square metres of decorative composite panelling for the exterior of the tower. The panels were constructed from an FRP outer surface with a foam core, including aluminium structural struts, rockwool insulation and all necessary components for an aluminium attachment system. The panels are capable of resisting sand-laden loads carried in high winds some 300 metres above ground level, and meet NFPA 285 fire compliance standards.
